Naisby 736 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I hate a football Saturday when Boro are not playing. Saturday 3 pm the whistle goes and your hopes for the weekend are in the hand of the players officials and football gods. Not playing till Monday is just wrong that’s to me a mid week fixture, it shouldn’t be a Saturday one put back 21/2 days. Im probably in the minority here but there is now too much football spread across every day so tv can show a match. Saturday/Sunday and Tuesday/Wednesday should be the only days for league and Cup domestic matches. Let Sky or whoever show some foreign football on these other days. Thursday is my only exception as UEFA plays that day. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Naisby 736 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 If they want to fill the other nights footballing fix, then tv needs to start taking a leaf out of the US and bigging up the Academy leagues and using them as the US uses college sports to fill the tv spaces. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

TLF10 4,496 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I was bored so did a bit of research. It appears the average needed for 2nd spot is 86pts. Therefore we need 44 points from our remaining 20 games (60pts) to play for. That is a tall order regardless of how you do the maths. We would need to win around min of 13 of our last 20 games to be in with a shout imo. And even then we need some draws and very few losses. 15 wins, no draws and 5 losses. 45pts 14 wins. 2 draws and 4 losses. 44pts 13 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses. 44pts 12 wins, 8 draws and 0 losses. 44pts. As for a 6th spot finish. 75pts should do it. We need 33pts for that. Which seems a lot more doable. @Blanco i will leave it to you to tell me the average points needed for champions. Haha. I think Wilder should get a knighthood if he takes up in 2nd spot never mind 1st 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
